I lost 300$ to this guy. WTF man,

Just begin a chargeback seeing as you did this transaction in Paypal, and just state that a) your account was hacked or b) that you never received the so called goods and hence you want your money back. For once Paypal is good for something related to BTC lol.

You guys realize that all you have to do is dispute the PayPal transaction and/or file a Chargeback. They'll close his PayPal eventually.

This is why I don't send payment first. Ever. EVER.

I'm finally able to write here. As you read in my post above, I lost $150 to this bastard. Why the forum administration doesn't ban such "members" is beyond me.

here is post from another scammed user:

Hi everyone,
I'm glad to be now part of this great community and start my adventure in the charming e-currency scene, whose first day for me wasn't unfortunately as I hoped. Yesterday I bought $150 worth of BTC via Paypal from the user Ludacrisx after seeing his thread here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/wts-049-btc-paypal-406805 but he didn't send me anything. The scammer wanted to "sell" $600 worth of BTC but luckily I decided to try him with a quarter of the full transaction.

Since new members can't post, send pms, etc, but I still wanted to buy some BTC, I contacted that guy because he published his Skype (of course none of the posts about his negative reputation you can read now in that thread were present). In fact, I had previously contacted an established member who had their email in their profile, but as I expected, they didn't reply since I'm a forum newbie.

His details:

Name: Alvaro Barboza
Country: Costa Rica
Skype: mircx777
Paypal email: [email protected]

Please post a link to this thread in the scammer's thread above.

This guy literally has no other life than to scam people out of their hard earned money. Day and night he trolls multiple forums and social networks looking for people to prey on.  Every time I come back to this board he's scammed someone.  If the mods would IP ban this fucker, it could be a deterrent but instead mods on this forum are complacent in all the scamming going on. Even blaming users for not being cautious. Great way to promote community.
